Ingredients:

1 pound crawfish meat, rough chopped

6 large baking potatoes

1/2 cup green onions, finely chopped

1/2 stick butter or margarine (I never use margarine)

1/4 tsp. cayenne powder (optional)

salt pepper and garlic powder to taste

1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

1 pound shredded cheese (I used mild cheddar)

1 cup of shredded sharp cheese (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 and bake potatoes for an hour, or until soft and
tender.Remove potatoes from the oven and let cool about 20
minutes.

Melt the butter in a sauté pan.Sauté the green onions,
parsley, seasonings (except cayenne) and crawfish.

After a couple
minutes, add the cayenne powder to the ingredients being sautéed and mix
well.When the ingredients in the sauté pan have about 4-5
minutes left, add cheese.

When the cheese has melted remove from stove
and set aside.Scoop out the potatoes and put in a large mixing
bowl.

Fold in the crawfish and cheese mixture.

Scoop the mixture back
into the empty potato skins

Sprinkle the sharp cheese on top of
the potatoes.

Bake at 350 for 10 minutes and serve immediately.

Bon appétit!
